In the structure of [Cu(C17H14N3S2)2]·2C3H7NO, the Cu atom (site symmetry [\overline{1}]) is N,S-chelated by the two deprotonated Schiff-base anions that define a distorted square-planar geometry. An N—H⋯O hydrogen bond links the mononuclear complex to the DMF solvent mol­ecules.

Experimental top

Benzyl (1H-indol-2-ylmethylene)hydrazinecarbodithioate (Khaledi et al., 2008b) (1 mmol, 0.33 g) was dissolved in ethanol (30 ml). To the clear solution was added an ethanol solution (10 ml) containing 1 mmol (0.09 g) of copper chloride dihydrate. The mixture was heated for an hour. The product that separated was recrystallized from DMF.

Refinement top

The C-bound H atoms were placed at calculated positions (C–H 0.95–0.99 Å) and were treated as riding on their parent C atoms, with U(H) set to 1.2–1.5 times Ueq(C). The amino H-atom was located in a difference Fourier map, and was refined with a distance restraint of N–H 0.88±0.01 Å; its temperature factor was freely refined.
